Expansion of Naval Industry; Shipbuilding to be expanded.

December 7th, 5701

To achieve the slogan, "50 years of progress in 5", the Metok Administration has sought to enact industrial expansions. The first expansion the Metok Administration is looking at, is towards coastal Cantons, looking to expand Shipbuilding capacity, expand ports and promote naval industry. The goal, beyond achieving a campaign promise, is to expand jobs and promote economic growth, as well as increase port sizes for trade vessels, and obviously, expand Shipbuilding capacities for civilian and military matters. While the instability in the Sea of Carina is dying down, and as such, making the Sovereign Sea more stable, the need for extra accommodations is still necessary.

As such, existing shipyards in coastal Cantons will be expanded, and standardized. This will uniform for civilian and military ports. The goal for all ports will be to expand their production capacity, and their quality. Whether it be producing civilian ships such as ferries, cargo ships, research ships, humanitarian logistics ships, or military ships such as patrol vessels, corvettes, support ships and auxiliary naval assets. This has two major benefits up front. One, should a nation look to need ships, they can purchase from Xsampa, and receive ships constructed by Xsampan hands and two, domestic production is increased. Which is always a win. Furthermore, alongside port expansions, maintenance will be vital. For civilian ships and the XDAN. Dry docks will be expanded, retrofit facilities will be created and expanded, components will be standardized and modernized. While expensive, the state does have more wiggle room for funds due to the Tsokling Reform Act of 5700.

Finally, to ensure security in the Sovereign Sea for traders and civilian traffic and boost security traffic in the Sovereign Sea, radar systems will need to be expanded, as well as sonar systems, and an expansion of port traffic controls. The goal is to ensure that should issues arise, civilian traffic will be able to safely navigate, and ensure security forces can combat piracy or illegal smuggling. 

While the goal is to provide new jobs, it's clear that another goal is to provide more logistical support for the XDAN, and also ensure long term foreign purchases of Xsampan Shipbuilding needs.
